Sanctuary Doc is a nonprofit multimedia project sharing visual stories of compassion for animals across challenging contexts. One such story involves exploring the connection between humans experiencing homelessness and their companion animals. On this episode, we are joined by Sanctuary Doc’s co-founder, Thomas Machowicz, and board member, Diana Hulet. Both are animal photojournalists who have been using their lens to capture the bonds and realities faced by people and their companion animals experiencing homelessness, as well as the vet teams who help keep the animals healthy and these families together. Join us as we discuss the importance of bringing visibility and compassion to humans and non-human animals in vulnerable circumstances and the role of mindfulness in animal activism and photography.
